My computer runs on windows xp. Have got a Canon printer
i450, have inst~~~ed the driver, but my computer will not
recognise that I have new hardware am getting pretty

Ann, check here. Did you install the software first before the Printer?
If not, try that. If you have Win2000 have you
installed all the winupdates?

When you say your computer doesn't see the device, do you mean it doesn't
show up in the Device Manager? R u using the XP printer driver from Canon? I
found it on
http://www.canon.com.hk/english/driv...e_jet/i450.htm

(It should work - I wouldn't recommend you use the Win2000 driver on XP.)

good luck!
